Have you ever noticed this little guy in Glencairn’s Egyptian Gallery? Crocodiles were mummified in huge numbers in Ancient Egypt, where they were associated with crocodile-god Sobek, the Lord of the Nile. He was worshiped at his cult center in the city of Crocodilopolis, and in many other temples and shrines throughout Egypt. -- source link
